I saw Sally Struthers as Miss Hannigan in ANNIE and as Miss Lynch in GREASE. She was hilarious in both shows. The audiences loved her.
She opened GREASE - which begins with a reunion which sort of explained why all the high
school students were [at least] in their thirties.
People were still coming into the theatre and she stopped the show and asked their names...."Oh yes, I remember you, you were always late to class, too"....and she took her ample frame out into the audience moving between rows and "remembering" anecdotes about people whose feet she was stepping on....she walked behind us brushing up against us and apologizing....for the narrow aisles...
